I bought myself a home gym

SupremeGod · 05-20-2006, 07:58 PM

Its a cheap $200 from Wal-Mart, the Impex Competitor, but damn does it get the job done how I like it to be done. I used it at my gf's dad's house, and it can do everything I did when I went to the gym, so it satisfies me perfectly. The only problem right now is that it needs to be assembled, and its in about 40000000 parts.

PICS!:

Sadly, this is the only one I can find. I'll take pictures in a couple years when me and Corbs get it assembled.

I don't want pics, I want a video of you all buffed up doing it in slow motion like they do on TV.

one M10 x 5 1/8” Allen Bolt (#68) and M10 Aircraft Nut (#85).
F.) Draw the Cable around the Pulley then to the opening on the Upper Vertical
Frame (#14). Repeat Procedure B above to install another Pulley.
G.) Draw the Cable around the Pulley then downward. Attach the Cable to a Double
Floating Pulley Bracket (#31). Install another Pulley. Let the bracket hanging for
now.
H.) Pull the Cable upward to the open bracket underneath the Upper Frame. Install a
Pulley to the bracket.
I.)
Pull the Cable downward between the two Guide Rods to the Selector Rod
(#17). Fully thread the bolt at the end of the Cable into the top opening on the
Selector Rod.
J.) Connect the Lat Bar (#18) to a Short Chain (#49) with a C-clip (#53). Then
connect the Short Chain to the Upper Cable with another C-clip.

STEP 6 (See Diagram 6 & Cable Loop Diagram)
A.) Attach one end of the 119” Butterfly Cable (#37) to the hook on the Right Butterfly (#6).
B.) Draw the Cable to the right Swivel Pulley Bracket (#21).
C.)Attach a Pulley to the bracket. Secure it with one M10 x 1 ¾” Allen Bolt (#72), two Ø ¾”
Washers (#83), and one M10 Aircraft Nut (#85).
D.)Draw the Cable around the Pulley then downward. Attach the Cable to a Crossed Double
Floating Pulley Bracket (#20). Install another Pulley. Let the Bracket hanging for now.
E.) Pull the Cable around the Pulley then upward to the left Swivel Pulley Bracket. Repeat
Procedure C above to install a Pulley.
F.) Draw the Cable to the left Butterfly. Attach the end to the hook on the Left Butterfly.

STEP 7 (See Diagram 7 & Cable Loop Diagram)
A.) Attach the 128” Lower Cable (#36) to the open bracket on the bottom of the Leg
Developer (#7).
B.) Attach a Pulley to the bracket. Secure it with one M10 x 1 ¾” Allen Bolt (#72), two Ø
¾” Washers (#83), and one M10 Aircraft Nut (#85).
C.) Draw the Cable underneath the Pulley to the opening on the Leg Developer Holder
(#1). Attach a Pulley to the opening. Secure it with one M10 x 2 3/8” Allen Bolt (#71),
two Pulley Bushings (#50), and one M10 Aircraft Nut (#85).
D.) Draw the Cable underneath the Pulley along the Main Base Frame to the opening on
the bottom of the Lower Vertical Frame (#3). Repeat Procedure C above to install
another Pulley.
E.) Pull the Cable upward to the Crossed Double Floating Pulley Bracket (#20)
previously installed in Step-6. Install another Pulley.
F.) Draw the Cable around the Pulley then downward to the open bracket on the Main
Base Frame. Install another Pulley.
G.) Pull the Cable around the Pulley then upward to the Double Floating Pulley Bracket
(#31) previously installed in Step-5. Install another Pulley.
H.) Draw the Cable around the Pulley then pull downward to the bracket on the back of
the Upper Vertical Frame (#14). Secure the Cable to the bracket with one M10 x 1”
Allen Bolt (#73), two Ø ¾” Washers (#83), and one M10 Aircraft Nut (#85).
I.) Adjust the tension of the Cable by adjusting the Pulley position on the Double
Floating Pulley Bracket (#31). If the cables are too loose, move up the Pulley. If the
cables are too tight, move down the Pulley.
J.) For best performance of the machine, adjust the Cables so the Selector Stem (Top
Plate) on the weight stack is ¼” above the first plate. While pinning the weight stack,
push down on the Selector Stem to close up the gap then pin the plates. This will
remove the slag in the cable system so the range of motion is smooth and tight.
K.) Connect the Shiver Bar (#19) to a Long Chain (#48) with a C-clip (#53). Connect the
Long Chain to the Lower Cable with another C-clip

Wooooooo...
